Silver Beach Elementary seeks community support

In the wake of budget cuts and two recent fundraisers, “The Magic of Sterling” and the Jog-a-thon, the Silver Beach Education Association is seeking support to continue funding for Silver Beach Elementary. Community members are asked to help. Recycled electronics such as used cell phones, laptops and empty inkjet and laser cartridges can be donated to the recycling box in Silver Beach Elementary office. The school, in turn, gets cash for the items. The Fred Meyer Rewards Card can be linked to the school so that purchasing products associated with the Campbell’s Labels for Education directly benefits Silver Beach. Also through Campbell’s is the Campbell’s Soup Labels program; anyone can bring in specific labels to the school library, which will then be transferred into points that help to buy merchandise for the school. Collecting box tops for the Box Tops for Education program allows supermarket items to be used for funding to the school.

The Silver Beach Education Association is also looking to fill its President, Secretary and Volunteer Coordinator positions by June 8. The work of these along with all other committee positions is used to enrich students’ education through projects that include art programming, library funding, assemblies, playground equipment and field trips.

All donations and work by the Silver Beach Education Association will be used to benefit students’ educational experiences. For more information on Silver Beach Elementary, click here.
